Olive Branches & More
---------------------
Ruby's birthday party has wound down and just a few folks are left.  Jason
offers to take Mary Mae and Keesha home.  He's got his mother's car so
Keesha won't have to sit on her grandmother's lap.  Keesha readily accepts
but Mary Mae would rather they go with Justus.  Keesha points out that
Justus is caught up in a discussion with Luke that looks like it has a ways
to go and Mary May gives in.  Ruby heads upstairs after wishing Karen and
Jagger had been there with a promise to call the happy Chicagoans.  After
Luke checks on Lucky and Justus determines Mary Mae and Keesha have a way
home they turn their discussion to the evidence against Edward.  Justus
points out that things aren't always what they seem, as with the
circumstantial evidence and Mary Mae's intuition that Edward didn't kill
Bradley.  They both agree there is something Mary Mae isn't telling them
[boy if only they knew] and decide to try turning over another rock.  The
four silver foxes who had the meeting with Bradley the week before he died
somehow knew about Kylie's pregnancy.  Luke decides to see what he can find
out from Steve Hardy.  Justus thanks Luke for all he's done and with that
Luke tells Justus to look out for an olive branch from Edward.

Meanwhile in the Ward living room Jason finishes telling Keesha and Mary Mae
a story about putting black olives on a stick and offering it to AJ as an
"olive branch" when they were kids.  Jason decides it's time to leave and
Mary May tries not to watch as Jason kisses Keesha good night.  Once Jason
is gone Keesha and Mary Mae have another battle over Keesha dating Jason.
Keesha will deal the the possibility of Edward having killed Bradley when
it comes about.  They get into a shouting match and Keesha walks out.  Later
Keesha returns to apologize and Mary Mae lets Keesha know she understands
the kinds of feelings Keesha has of young love but she's just trying to
protect Keesha from getting hurt.  Mary Mae points out that all that matters
to the Quartermaines is power and money and while they may not say anything
now eventually they'll put their foot down about one of their grandsons
seeing a "colored girl."  Jason may not look like a Quartermaine or act like
a Quartermaine but Mary Mae warns Keesha that he IS a Quartermaine.

Back outside Kelly's Stone and Robin talk about how guilty Robin feels about
the skunk incident.  Stone suggests she just go ahead and tell Mac and take
the punishment.  But Robin doesn't want to do that, they'll never get to see
each other.  Stone can't understand that Robin can't just forget it...she's
got all the buttons that can be pushed...ones that Stone never worries about.
Stone then tells Robin about the blues club Luke is opening with Sonny on
the site of the Paradise Lounge.  It's supposed to be a secret but Stone
figures since Luke's involved maybe that'll make her feel better about him
and Sonny.  [Oops...will this be how Mac learns about the competition?]

The Commish Visits the Q's Again!
---------------------------------
Sean arrives at the Q's again to see Alan and is announced by Reginald.
There is some discussion of Sean visiting "old times" when he talked with
Monica earlier in the day.  Sean makes a comment about so many suspects
under one roof.  With that Alan excuses Reginald and asks Sean what he can
do for him.  Sean would like a little confession...it's good for the soul.
Sean and Alan play cat and mouse over Katherine's overdose, Ray Conway's
death and the person who stole the evidence in the Conway death from the
police.  When Alan points out a sleaze like Ray deserved what he got for
kicking around Rhonda, a very nice woman, Sean admits if he were in a
similar situation he might have acted the exact same way.  With that Sean
admits the Conway case is essentially closed and moves on to question Alan
about Katherine.  yes, Alan despised her, and had motive and opportunity
but he's not about to confess or give up anyone else in the house either
as they all felt exactly the same about Katherine.  As Sean makes a remark
about doing his job well [what???] and not expecting Alan to implicate
anyone Edward comes in. "You again?"  Edward tries to give Sean a check for
the police benevolence fund, as thanks for deep sixing the Ray Conway case,
but says it's just the Quartemaine's annual contribution...just a little
early.  Sean doesn't accept and instead informs Edward he wants Edward down
at headquarters with his attorney the next morning for his statement about
Bradley.  With that Sean leaves and Lila arrives.  Edward starts to say
it's nothing but instead informs Lila and Alan that he's a suspect in Bradley
Ward's murder.  Lila is appalled and Alan can't believe it.  The police
have nothing better to do than suspect a Q again.  Alan heads off to his
wife and bedroom after telling Edward he believes Edward didn't kill anyone.
Edward then asks Lila if she believes him.  Lila does what she usually doesn't
do...asks Edward straight out.  Normally she doesn't ask about his
infidelities, lying to the IRS and other stuff.  They have a tender moment
as Edward tells her it may look otherwise from the evidence but he didn't
kill Bradley, he "couldn't" kill Bradley.  Edward is weary and Lila suggests
he soak in the hot tub but before he goes he reminds Lila not to doubt his
love for her.  However Lila is clearly worried.  Later Reginald comes in to
see if Lila needs anything and seeing her state he offers to get Annabelle.
But Lila doesn't want the sensitive dog to pick up on her worries and instead
asks Reginald to sit beside her.  Reginald tries to assure her that while
Lila thinks it's getting to be too much for her to take it will all work out.

A Miserable Turn of Events
--------------------------
Lucy and Kevin arrive at the lighthouse and Lucy launches into a monologue
about how pleased she is about her revenge against Katherine and Damian.
Kevin tries to get a few words in and finally resorts to kissing Lucy to
get her to stop talking.  Lucy says he's rude to have interrupted her but
Kevin's had enough talk of Damian and Katherine.  Lucy has her victory...
now he wants to concentrate on "us."  Lucy asks if he's trying to seduce
her as Kevin nuzzles Lucy.  It get very warm very fast as they move to
the couch.  Lucy stops to ask Kevin if he's sure...he's sure and it gets
hot and heavy until....Lucy cries out..."Oh Damian." [As Rick said...Lucy,
Lucy, Lucy]  Kevin is furious and no matter how Lucy tries to explain it
away Kevin doesn't like it and questions how she would feel if she had been
all over him and he had called out "Felicia."  Lucy says she would hate it
as Kevin walks to the door counting to ten in French.  Lucy tries to
apologize.  Damian's been in her mind for almost a year but now he's out
of her system.  Kevin isn't convinced and asks her to leave...and suggests
maybe she should visit Damian.  Once outside with the door closed behind
her Lucy vows this will be the last time Damian ruins something for her.

At GH Damian is calling Cusak on the carpet for leaving a paper trail from
his father to the money Damian used to buy into ELQ.  It was supposed to be
legit $$.  Cusak wonders what Damian expected...after all he did ask Frank
for the $$.  Damian is not a happy camper since the Q's have forced him out
of ELQ and Damian is going to make sure Cusak is not happy either.  Cusak
tries to offer his sympathy to Damian and wonders why Damian sold out.
Damian points out the Q's could have had the feds into Frank. Cusak figures
the Q's wouldn't have wanted the feds inside ELQ anymore than Frank wants
the feds looking into his business Damian points out he "took a fall for
his father" and Cusak better inform Frank of that.  With that Cusak leaves
figuring Damian had folded...but no Damian didn't fold.  Amy comes in and
a grumpy Damian asks Amy what she sees when she looks at Damian and Amy
does her usual flirt..but when Damian calls it that...no it's just Amy's
cheerful beside manner.  Lucy arrives...Amy leaves...Damian needs a friend
to talk to.  And Damian tells Lucy she's probably the only friend he's got.
No...Lucy's not his friend....she could be his worst nightmare.  Lucy lets
Damian know she was involved with Luke and the Q's leveling Damian and the
transfer of his ELQ stock back to the Quartermaines.  Damian doesn't quite
understand why Lucy did it.  Lucy, as only Lucy can, lets him know it was
how he played her for a fool and lied to get Deception.  They continue to
trade barbs until Damian grabs Lucy's arms and warn her that when he can
walk he's come gunning for her.  A shaken Lucy leaves behind Damian who
has a face full of anger...[has he turned into his father?]
